Epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition in the context of epidermal growth factor receptor inhibition in non‐small‐cell lung cancer
19 Apr 2018
Abstract excerpt
The identification of oncogenic driver mutations in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) has led to the development of targeted drugs. Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) directed against the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) target lung tumours bearing EGFR-activating mutations. This new therapeutic strategy has greatly improved tumour response rates. However, drug resistance invariably occurs during TKI-based...
